Most probably irritation of your gingiva or gums. Make sure you are brushing your teeth/gumline twice a day at least and flossing daily. small amounts of blood in saliva could indicate the beginnings of gum disease. when was the last time you went to the dentist? Make sure you are having your teeth cleaned every 6 months by the dental hygienist and getting a full dental exam every year.
